JUNE 29--A Florida man last week called 911 seeking a police escort to the Miami home of the rapper Lil Wayne.
Michael Kruse, 20, was arrested on a misdemeanor charge for making false emergency calls, according to a St. John's County Sheriff's Office report.
Listen to Kruse's 911 call:
When Kruse, who was calling from his Ford Taurus, requested the escort, a police operator asked, 'You want a police escort to take you to Miami?' He answered, 'Or, do you have a helicopter?' The 911 operator replied, 'We don't just send helicopters up for rappers.'
Kruse, pictured in the mug shot above, did not respond to an interview request left on his cell phone. (2 pages)
